While the title of this Blog post may have a different "meaning" to you, for me...it only seemed appropriate after reviewing some recent "invitations" I've received from clients who have become friends over the years.
As a full-time Real Estate agent who has been in the business for seven years now, I've been honored to represent hundreds of Buyers and Sellers and am proud to say that I have developed friendships with many of them.
Over the years, I've been invited to and attended, weddings, baby showers, funerals, anniversary parties, birthdays, housewarming parties, divorce "celebrations," family BBQ's, neighborhood block parties and graduations. Sometimes my social calendar is busier with events from past clients, turned friends, than it is with my own family activities!
While some Real Estate agents may shy away from becoming friends with their clients as they believe it's not good for business to blend the two...I am not one of them! I truly enjoy developing a relationship with my clients and can honestly say that while it is the commission check that pays the bills, it is the friendship that pays the dividends.
Each day I am blessed with emails, phone calls, invitations and requests by those that I once referred to only as clients that I am now able to call "friends," which to me...is the true "benefit" of being a REALTOR.
Wouldn't you agree?
"REALTOR for Life" and "FRIEND for Life" too!
